Oz, Middle Earth and Lakewood: The Common Ground

Yesterday, I told you about my visit to the Jersey Jack Pinball factory in Lakewood. It was by far one of the coolest factory tours that I've ever taken (and I got a tour of the Hershey Ice Cream factory years ago!).

Jack, Jen, and Steve couldn't have been more accommodating - showing us every step, talking about the development, concept, and every step of construction of their flagship "Wizard of Oz" game.

Next, Jersey Jack will move on to one of the biggest blockbuster Hollywood franchises of all time, The Hobbit. Jack talked a bit about the upcoming game, and we even grabbed a few pictures of one of the best kept secrets in pinball.

And again, I can't thank the Jersey Jack crew enough for welcoming us with open arms. I'm looking forward to lots more flipping with Jersey Jack Pinball!

Check out the photos and videos below.
